U.S. Defense Secretary: Second Aircraft Carrier to Join Iran Blockade, Blockade to Continue Until Objectives Achieved

BlockBeats News, April 24th, U.S. Secretary of Defense Hedges said in a press briefing that the second U.S. aircraft carrier will join the blockade against Iran, with 34 ships having turned back from the Strait of Hormuz so far. The U.S. blockade has expanded globally and has seized two Iranian "shadow fleet" ships that left Iranian ports before the blockade took effect. Iran still has a window of opportunity to make a wise decision at the negotiating table. The blockade will continue until the objective is achieved. Iran has a historic opportunity to reach a significant agreement, and the ball is in their court.
